Longtime metro Detroit restaurants close as owners cite rising costs

Across metro Detroit, longtime restaurants plus a bakery are among the businesses that closed in October. Several of the closing announcements brought diners and customers out in droves for one last taste, slice or sip. On the October list of closings is the last location of the Sign of the Beefcarver in Royal Oak, Capri Italian Bakery in Dearborn and Perry’s Pizza in Clawson – all in business for decades. And like other recent closings, owners cited the economy and high food costs as the reason for closing. Here’s a roundup of metro Detroit's late September and October closings. Atwater in the Park Grosse Pointe Park This Grosse Pointe Park brewery, with a taproom and biergarten in a former church, poured its last pints on Oct. 23.

Lauren Burke has now sued the breakfast chain, its owner and 14 related companies, arguing that math reflects a systemic shortchanging of tipped workers rather than a one-time error.
